Details on test system:
Specification
The test system is a commercially available EpiDermTM-Kit, procured by MatTek.
The EpiDermTM tissue consists of human-derived epidermal keratinocytes which have been cultured to form a multi-layered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis. It consists of organized basal, spinous and granular layers, and a multi-layered stratum corneum containing intercellular lamellar lipid layers representing main
lipid classes analogous to those found in vivo. The EpiDermTM tissues are cultured on specially prepared cell culture inserts.
Origin
EpiDermTM tissues were procured from MatTek In Vitro Life Science Laboratories, Brati-slava.
Designation of the kit: EPI-212-SIT
Day of delivery: 25. Apr. 2017
